Mr. HENRY GEORGE. who is now enlightening
the West concerning his land theory and how to
abolish poverty, has been visiting st. Louis.
OF his movements in that city local paper
says: 'sMr. George exemplited the doctrine by
which he has been living for
year SO, yesterday afternoon, by
driving about town in" the Cleveland carriage
behind a pair of handsome, bang tailed blacks,
driven by liveried coachman with bug on his
hat He seems to be making good start for
the abolition of poverty in his own case.

man for an error when a reprimand or some
slight discipline would prevent him from
committing it again. But this man is a
Republican, and he goes out for this slight
mistake to make aplace for some green hand
who will be a good Democrat, and whose
blunders will have to be overlooked for
months to come. Gril-service reform in the
Indianapolis postofacs is farce and sham.

APARTMENT house landlords in New
York have at last hit upon what they
deem a successful plan for circumventing
the moving tenants. The latter have been
accustomed to move out of the flats on the
first of May, store their furniture for the
summer, and take their chances of renting
on return from the country. To defeat
this sharp practice, "fat Owners have now
resolved 10 rent only on leases running
from October to October, thus compelling
the tenant to carry the rental for the year.
The result may prove temporarily success
full, but it will not long obtain. The tenant
will so vigorously protest that the re-
suit will be y great demand for suburban
residences. There will then come about
complete reversal of the order of things.
The New York tenant of moderate means
will rent for the longer term country
house, and make the city soiourn of his
family winter flight only. The owners
of flats will be compelled to meet the new
demand or let their houses go tenantless.
1t Is gratifying always to find the drift of
population setting out of great cities and
towards suburban parts. Life in a large
city, at the very best, is not and never
can be 80 desirable as in the unconfined
rural regions. The American people are
more and more acting upon this truth, and
making cities only temporary abiding
plaees.

THE hope is strongly maintained by
probability that the cholera in the lower
bay Of New York harbor will be confined
to that locality, for this season at least
But the experience of Europe has shown
that under the most severe stamping out
process the germs may remain and develop
a year or two thereafter. 1t is therefore
the caution of wisdom ON the part of every
community to clean up now and to keep
the cities and towns serupulously clean all
winter, spring aud summer. The Cleve-
lana Leader says there is but one way to
fight the cholera and that is to destroy by
Ere or burial all table, kitchen or other
refuse and to keep as clean as possible and
thoroughly disinfected all drains, cesspools
and vaults. What it urges upon its people
applies as well to those of this coast.

BUSINESS INCOMPETENCE IN STATES.

The San Francisco Arqonam is amazed
that two such powerful nations as France
and Germany should maintain such indif-
ferent boundary posts for their half
hundred miles of geographically unde-
fined mutual border The boundary monu-
ments are small stone posts set in thick
woods, and half or wholly hidden by under
growth or, are wooden fnger-posts that
the winds blow over and the storms render
undistinguishable. Hence, it is very diff
cult for one to tell, when near the boun-
dairy, whether he is on French or German
soil. Out of this difficulty have arisen the
unfortunate events that have been made
tragic by the shooting of human beings by
German border customs guards. The sug-
gestion that a half-nile of neutral ground
each side the line should be laid off, is an
excellent one, but better still would be the
building of continuous low stone wall
that cannot be mistaken.
1t is one Of the curious facts of history
that great nations, from which we natur-
ally look for wise action, in similar cases
take less of care and precaution than the
owners of private property. So, too, in
many of their business relations, nations
permit neglect, commit errors, and are in
different to methods, which, in the COM
monest commercial business are deemed
indispensable. As single instance, near
at home, in our own State the checks upon
the fee system in State offices are such as
would not be tolerated between the
business departments of a jobbing house,
or in the most ordinary retail establish.
ment for an hour. Several Legislatures
have had their attention drawn to the fact
and though capable men have filled most
State offices, the simplest application OF
business principles has not been attempted
to prevent peculation under the fee sys-
tenn.
1t is no more amazing that Germany and
France seem to be paralyzed in the face of
the problem how to mark short boundary
line Enthusiastically, than that great
American State proves incompetent to
apply the simplest rules Of bookkeeping
and business to its fee system.
